About Vuyiswa

Vuyiswa's journey is a reflection of a dynamic career shaped by diverse experiences and roles. As a seasoned corporate executive, founder, investor, mother, and global citizen, she brings a unique blend of expertise and insight to her endeavors. Her career kickstarted as an Analyst at Andersen Business Consulting, where she delved into the intricacies of customer and channel solutions. From there, she ventured into The Advantage Group's Pricing Solutions Division, exploring the fascinating world of pricing research and strategy.

However, it was her impactful tenure at SAP that truly ignited her passion for driving innovation and fostering growth. As the Global Chief Product Strategist, she spearheaded global product and innovation strategies, directly supporting the Executive Board. Her role expanded to Senior Vice President within SAP's Services and Support organization, where she led transformative initiatives in sales, customer success, and digital transformation. But Vuyiswa's journey didn't stop there. Driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, she ventured into founding FintechX GmbH (and the Infinicash brand), marking a new chapter in her career. Her ability to attract venture capital and earn accolades from entities like Google speaks volumes about her visionary leadership and the transformative potential of her brand.

Beyond her professional achievements, Vuyiswa is deeply committed to making an impact beyond boardrooms. She actively engages in board memberships, advisory roles, and public speaking engagements, where she shares her insights and experiences to empower others. Now, as the founder of her consultancy, Vuyiswa is dedicated to helping companies and founders tackle their most pressing strategic challenges. Her offerings, which also include interim management and public speaking, are driven by a genuine desire to make a difference.

Vuyiswa's academic journey, which includes an HBA from the Richard Ivey School of Business, an MBA from WHU-Otto Beisheim School of Management, and a Postgraduate Certificate from Stanford University, provides a solid foundation for her professional accomplishments. Yet, it's her hands-on experiences and personal journey as a global citizen that truly define her as a thought leader in the realms of strategy, product management, and customer success
